Proposed Information Collection
Activities
Under the PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501–3521,
Federal agencies must obtain approval
from OMB for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ means
agency requests or requirements that
members of the public submit reports,
keep records, or provide information to
a third party. 44 U.S.C. 3502(3), 5 CFR
1320.3(c). Because the number of
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
entities affected by the Commission’s
requests will exceed ten, the
Commission plans to seek OMB
clearance under the PRA. As required
by § 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, the
Commission is providing this
opportunity for public comment before
requesting that OMB extend the existing
paperwork clearance for the information
collection requirements associated with
the Commission’s regulations under the
FTC’s Informal Dispute Settlement
Procedures Rule (the Dispute Settlement
Rule or Rule) (OMB Control Number
3084–0113), 16 CFR 703.
The Dispute Settlement Rule is one of
three rules 1 that the FTC implemented
pursuant to requirements of the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15
U.S.C. 2301 et seq. (Warranty Act or
Act).2 The Dispute Settlement Rule, 16
CFR 703, specifies the minimum
standards which must be met by any
informal dispute settlement mechanism
(IDSM) that is incorporated into a
written consumer product warranty and
which the consumer must use before
pursuing legal remedies under the Act
in court. In enacting the Warranty Act,
Congress recognized the potential
benefits of consumer dispute
mechanisms as an alternative to the
judicial process. Section 110(a) of the
Act sets out the Congressional policy to
‘‘encourage warrantors to establish
procedures whereby consumer disputes
are fairly and expeditiously settled
through informal dispute settlement
mechanisms’’ and erected a framework
for their establishment.3 As an incentive
to warrantors to establish IDSMs,
Congress provided in Section 110(a)(3)
that warrantors may incorporate into
their written consumer product
warranties a requirement that a
consumer must resort to an IDSM before
pursuing a legal remedy under the Act
for breach of warranty.4 To ensure
fairness to consumers, however,
Congress also directed that, if a
warrantor were to incorporate such a
‘‘prior resort requirement’’ into its
written warranty, the warrantor must
comply with the minimum standards set
by the Commission for such IDSMs.5
Section 110(a)(2) of the Act directed the
Commission to establish those
minimum standards.6
The Dispute Settlement Rule contains
standards for IDSMs, including
1 The other two rules relate to the information
that must appear in any written warranty offered on
a consumer product costing more than $15 and the
pre-sale availability of warranty terms.
